Autocrine purinergic receptor signaling is essential for macrophage chemotaxis.
Chemotaxis, the movement of cells along chemical gradients, is critical for the recruitment of immune cells to sites of inflammation; however, how cells navigate in chemotactic gradients is poorly understood.

Epsilon-toxin (ETX) is produced by types B and D strains of Clostridium perfringens, which cause fatal enterotoxaemia in sheep, goats and cattle. Previous studies showed that only a restricted number of cell lines are sensitive to ETX and ETX-induced ...

Purinergic receptor expression in neuronal, bladder smooth muscle and urothelial cells: characterization and inhibition by low molecular weight antagonists [PDF]
P2 purinoceptors comprise ionotropic (P2X) and metabotropic (P2Y) receptor families, responsive to nucleotide ligands and diversely distributed on virtually every mammalian cell. Most cells and tissues co-express multiple subtypes of purinoceptor; thus,

Purinergic receptors and the inflammatory response mediated by lipids.
The inflammatory response is regulated by the production of different extracellular mediators, including lipids and extracellular nucleotides. In the extracellular environment, intermediate lipids activate specific G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) in ...

The Purinergic P2Y Receptor Family as Novel Drug Target in Epilepsy
Epilepsy is one of the most common chronic neurological diseases and is characterized by recurrent seizures. Despite the existence of numerous anti-epileptic drugs, 30-40% of patients remain drug-refractory. Consequently, we must identify novel target genes with new mechanisms of action.

Expression of purinergic P2 receptors and their role in intracellular calcium signaling of neonatal pituitary cells [PDF]
This diploma thesis focuses on study of the expression of purinergic receptors P2X and P2Y in the cells of neonatal adenohypofysis. Purinergic receptors are activated by binding of extracellular ATP and their activation leads to an increase in ...
